    Co2 Issue, assistance please

    Hello. This morning wasn't awesome. Last night I kegged two of my beers and put them on some Co2 in the keggerator. I woke up this morning and went to look in the fridge to make sure there were no leaks and there was this hissing sound coming from the release valve of the second connection...

    Mold in extract

    So I guess I didn't use it quick enough. Anyway there was mold in my extract and since I was doing the late addition method I didn't realize until too late. I threw it in, boiled for about 20 minutes and I'm fairly confident I should be infection free, however, the flavor is what I'm concerned...

    Uncle Sam wants me to Keg

    So in the spirit of stimulating the economy the decision has been made to turn this empty fridge I have into a kegerator. My apologies if I am re-hashing something that has already been covered.

    OG quick question?

    Finished another batch and I actually took a SG this time. Go me. The OG was 1.052 and the kit said it should be at 1.043. The temperature in the house was around 75. Could someone tell me why the SG would be a bit higher than expected? It came out to almost exactly 5 gallons, maybe a touch...

    Can I turn my bock into an ... ale?

    So while I was online, I ordered two kits to keep me in the beers. In my haste in picking I added an american bock to the cart and of i'm not exactly equipped to lager any beer yet. So my question is, can I just change the yeast and make an ale instead? Or would it likely be gross since the...

    Start of week 3 and we're still bubbling

    So the airlock is still bubbling at the start of week 3. Do I have wild yeasts wrecking up the joint? I'm going to head out on vacation starting tonight and when I get back Sunday, if it's still bubbling, should I take some action? If it is wild yeast, is this something caused by sanitation...
